Two weeks late, as usual.

I have a life. Unlike some people who claim to be "happily married," but live here.

Does it hurt living with a stick up your ass?

Dude, sometimes you act like a person and you're really, really, likable. But a lot of the time you just act like a *****e. Like that comment you made about how you can "guarantee" that your financial situation is better than mine.

I never said it wasn't. This isn't a contest. But you don't know a thing about me. I could be Warren Buffet's granddaughter for all you know with a few billion in trust, but you still "guaranteed," that you're better off then me. Stuff like that just makes you look hopelessly insecure and childish. And honestly, I would like to say it's beneath you, but I see that sort of thing from you so often that I guess it's really not.

 

[hammy]

Btw, I'm not Warren Buffet's granddaughter. (rats)

 

[Badger]

Classless, as usual.

Well you should have done a better job if you wanted the $20.00!!!

Just shaking your ass, isn't going to get it done!!

This from the person who said "credit is for poor people"? This from the person who has gone out of their way to insult every single person in this thread, always finding a way to insert a little dig here or there in nearly every single post or at least be highly condescending? This from the person who HAD TO make sure we all knew that she made more than Elijya's brother and sister-in-law combined? This from the person who not only had to...HAD TO make sure that everyone knew her financial knowledge was soooo much better than everyone else's on the Hype, but had to do so in a condescending manner? This from the person who overlooked a compliment and instead took what was obviously intended to be a good natured joke as an opportunity to call someone "classless as usual"? This from the person who just couldn't let this thread die and just HAD to bring it back two weeks later so she could get the last word in? This from the person who had the BALLS to insult my marriage? You're slinging around judgments on what constitutes arrogant, childish and insecure? Right. Listen, I really don't have an issue with you. Hell, before this thread I barely knew who the hell you were. You keep saying "I've noticed this and that about you". Interesting, since I've never really paid much attention to you. Since then, I've observed a little bit. When you're not rolling in inanity in the Lounge or waxing poetic about the virtues of Puff Daddy, you seem to have a second posting career as someone who targets people you think need to be taken down a peg or two, for whatever reason. Who knows what criteria you use for that, but it's something I've noticed YOU doing with a number of different posters. Truth of the matter is you came in here with a lot of vitriol and disrespect and you got exactly that in return. Maybe if you'd tried a different tact, we'd have had a very different conversation and exchanged some great ideas about financial resource management in a more synergistic and amicable way (which is really what I think message boards are best for). Instead, you decided to have at it with Elijya and I and just be a generally miserable prick about all of it. What did you expect in the way of a reaction? That you are surprised by the reaction you got is surprising. You're obviously not a stupid person at all. Maybe take a step back and realize that you get a lot of sh1t off the people you attack because you are ATTACKING them. But don't be surprised that your generally showing disrespect for people and being condescending towards them gets you exactly more of the same in return. If you want to drop all this and agree to try and be more amicable in the future, I'm perfectly willing to do so. It's all up to you.

Who cares about "online" incomes.

 

[The Shape]

Geez, look at what I've done...

 

[tzarinna]

Yes, look at it!

 

[The Shape]

Yes, look at it!

Sowwy.

 

[jaguarr]

Geez, look at what I've done...

Hey, the upside is that you got a ton of financial insight that you wouldn't have gotten otherwise, right?

Fair enough.

 

[hammy]

Puff daddy? I think you have me confused with someone else. I can’t remember ever mentioning Puff Daddy here, *confused* or anywhere, for that matter. (I’m pretty sure he doesn’t call himself Puff Daddy any more though.)

Oh jag, jag, jag, jag, jag. You wear me out. And not in the good way.

Despite your inability to admit when you’ve made mistakes or apologize for inappropriate comments, I don’t have much of a problem with you either. Life is too short and you’re just a stranger on a message board, after all. (A stranger who flunked reading comprehension, apparently, but a stranger nonetheless.)

I usually just let things go because I don’t have the inclination or the time to correct you. But inaccuracies irk me, and since I had a little extra time .. I’m going to.

This from the person who said "credit is for poor people"?

It is. If you have cash, you don’t need credit. You may choose to use it, but choosing is different than needing.

This from the person who has gone out of their way to insult every single person in this thread,

How did I insult Eliya or The Evolutionist, Badger Netomagnus, theShape LexCorp, or Malice? I didn’t. Oh, wait, you meant you, because you’re the only ‘important’ person in this thread.

always finding a way to insert a little dig here or there in nearly every single post or at least be highly condescending?

Oh pleeezzze .. this from probably the most condescending person on the hype. I can’t believe you’re that blind. I don’t want to believe it, anyway. I guess you just throw stuff out there hoping people won’t notice when you botch up the facts. Let me remind you that YOU are the person who ‘schooled’ me by ‘painting your scenarios.’ Then you went on to say I’m silly because all my investments are tied up in real estate and that I should enlarge my portfolio – of course, you have zero knowledge of my portfolio. But none of that is condescending, right? You claimed I would be silly to pay cash for a house. (that’s not so much condescending as it is dumb) When the alternative is to be up to my eyeballs in interest payments. And I guess you weren’t being condescending when you said you were going “to make me work” to explain my ‘don’t need credit if you’ve got cash’ comment.

If you took the time to reread the thread I think even you would see that you were far more condescending and used much more vitriol and disrespect than I.

This from the person who HAD TO make sure we all knew that she made more than Elijya's brother and sister-in-law combined? This from the person who not only had to...HAD TO make sure that everyone knew her financial knowledge was soooo much better than everyone else's on the Hype, but had to do so in a condescending manner?

First of all, I didn’t HAVE to do anything of the sort. If that was my goal I wouldn't be posting in some obscure little thread like this. I did it to illustrate the point that people at their income level ought to be able to pay cash for at least some of the things in their lives. He said they made payments on everything. And fyi, I DID NOT say I made more than them, I said I made less.

I never claimed to have so much more financial knowledge than everyone else. I don’t know all the people who post here. Unlike certain others, I wouldn’t be so presumptuous as to assume I know more than everyone else.

In fact, it was you who “guaranteed” that your financial situation is better than mine, even though, once again, you know nothing of my financial situation. It seems clear that you are the one who wants the honor of being the financial big cheese of the hype. (barney fife ref) And anyway, like I said, it’s not a contest. I don’t care if your financial situation is better than mine. That’s your business, not mine.

This from the person who overlooked a compliment and instead took what was obviously intended to be a good natured joke as an opportunity to call someone "classless as usual"?

Ask your wife to explain why it wasn’t a ‘good natured joke.’

This from the person who just couldn't let this thread die and just HAD to bring it back two weeks later so she could get the last word in?

Brought it back, like you just did .. to get the last word in? And besides, I told you, I have a life. I don't post every day.

This from the person who had the BALLS to insult my marriage? You're slinging around judgments on what constitutes arrogant, childish and insecure? Right. Listen, I really don't have an issue with you. Hell, before this thread I barely knew who the hell you were. You keep saying "I've noticed this and that about you".

Keep saying? Hmm, I believe I said it twice. And of course I’ve noticed lots of your posts. You’re ubiquitous. (that means you’re freaking, everywhere) Do you ever take a day off to just, you know, … live?

Interesting, since I've never really paid much attention to you.

95% of my posts here are in one of the comic forums. (I don’t believe I’ve ever seen you post in that forum.) The majority of threads in community don’t interest me, so I don’t go in to them. Though we have conversed in a couple of threads. And pm’d briefly.

Truth of the matter is you came in here with a lot of vitriol and disrespect and you got exactly that in return. Maybe if you'd tried a different tact, we'd have had a very different conversation and exchanged some great ideas about financial resource management in a more synergistic and amicable way (which is really what I think message boards are best for). Instead, you decided to have at it with Elijya and I and just be a generally miserable prick about all of it. What did you expect in the way of a reaction?

Dude, I think any objective third party would say it was you who’ve demonstrated vitriol and disrespect (as well as a fair amount of childishness.)

That you are surprised by the reaction you got is surprising.

I’m not the least bit surprised. Sadly, it’s exactly what I would expect from you.

You're obviously not a stupid person at all. Maybe take a step back and realize that you get a lot of sh1t off the people you attack because you are ATTACKING them. But don't be surprised that your generally showing disrespect for people and being condescending towards them gets you exactly more of the same in return. If you want to drop all this and agree to try and be more amicable in the future, I'm perfectly willing to do so. It's all up to you.

Once again, I didn’t attack anyone. Unless you consider my comments about you being annoying an attack. Even if that’s the case though, it was only you and no one else in this thread.

I’m perfectly willing to be amicable. *smile* I’m incapable of holding a grudge.

Now, let’s see how you’ll respond to this post.

You could ignore the temptation to ‘get the last word.'
You could realize you did indeed make several mistakes and take responsibility for them.
You could come back with another “lesson” for me.

Time will tell ..

Oh, and btw, Reading comprehension: Get some.

 

[jaguarr]

You are a waste of time, lady. And your reading comprehension is even worse than mine.

[Elijya]

How did I insult Eliya

By misspelling my name.

You're both acting like idiots.

But come on, Casey, YOU bumped this thread after two weeks for the sole purpose of calling Jag "classless". Ooo, wow, what a contributing post that was. Full of insightful information and tact. And wonderful timing. No, it's not petty at all to bump a two-week old thread to insult someone, rather than letting it go. Then to follow it up by claiming Jag has no life. Then to be a complete hypocrite by teasing Jag to say he'll "want the last word." What other reason could you have for insulting someone pointlessly two weeks after the fact than YOU wanting to get the last word? You certainly didn't add any new elements to the conversation with your remark.

I'm not going to bother giving you an infraction, or anything like that, because we both know you wouldn't care about it, but also because despite disagreeing with you on several points discussed in this thread, I really do believe you have a good enough head on your shoulders to realize what a jackass move that was. You've been on the net WAY too long to be acting like such a fool in this way.
